Wikipedia:Peer review/List of number-one Christian singles of 2004 (U.S.)/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I want to see the opinion of the community in regards to what needs to be improved in this list before a FL review. I believe the only section needing attention is the lede.

Preliminary note: The title of the article at peer review needs to change to the actual title, which was moved to "List of number-one Christian singles of 2004 (U.S.)" on 27 October. Brianboulton (talk) 18:08, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A few more comments

  • What is a "Christian single" – or, more specifically, what are the criteria that determine whether a song is eligible for this list?
    • According to Billboard, the chart is all-format and is airplay-based. Further articles note that it is calculated from radio airplay audience impressions from about 150 Christian stations.
  • What does "audience impression" mean, and how is this measurement determined?
    • 'Audience impression' means the chart is judged based on the approximate number of audience plays a song received over the weekend.
  • Rather than the half-apologetic sentence "Although "You Are My King (Amazing Love)" began its stint at No. 1 in 2003, it is included here for full statistical benefit" I would simply say; ""You Are My King (Amazing Love)" was also No. 1 for x weeks in 2003"
    • Alright, I will correct this.
  • "Two other singles, "More" by Matthew West and "Who Am I" by Casting Crowns, spent six weeks atop the chart." "Here with Me", as a song title, needs to be in quotes. Not sure about "other"; there is no unifying relationship between these two songs and "Here with Me". Is there any special significance about a run of six weeks, as against, say, five? Also, "atop", though not incorrect, sounds slightly quaint.
    • I tried to note the longest-running song of the year as well as the second longest. I evidently did not do a good job. :P
  • The information in the chart seems somewhat limited (date, title, artist). Using the link, I discovered that the songwriters of "Word of God Speak" are Bart Millard and Pete Kipely. Why not credit the writers of each song?
    • Good idea, I'll see if I can implement that. However, I did not find the credit you list anywhere on Billboard.
